Her feet, beneath her petticoat, / Like little mice stole in and out, / As if they feard the light; / But oh! she dances such a way, / No sun upon an Easter-day / Is half so fine a sight. Sir J. Suckling.

Heroism is the brilliant triumph of the soul over fear; fear of poverty, of suffering, of calumny, of sickness, of isolation and death . It is the dazzling and glorious concentration of courage. Amiel.

Hic patet ingeniis campus, certusque merenti / Stat favor: ornatur propriis industria donisHere is a field open for talent, and here merit will have certain favour, and industry be graced with its due reward. Claudian.

Hic situs est Phaëton currus auriga paterni; / Quem si non tenuit, magnis tamen excidit ausisHere lies buried Phaëton, the driver of his fathers car, which if he did not manage, still he perished in a great attempt. Ovid.

Hier ist die Zeit durch Thaten zu beweisen, / Dass Manneswürde nicht der Götterhöhe weichtNow is the time to show by deeds that the dignity of a man does not yield to the sublimity of the gods. Goethe.

Hier ist keine HeimatJeder treibt / Sich an dem andern rasch und fremd vortüber, / Und fragt nicht nach seinem SchmerzHere is no home for a man: every one drives past another hastily and unneighbourly, and inquires not after his pain. Schiller.

Hinc venti dociles resono se carcere solvunt, / Et cantum accepta pro libertate rependuntHence the obedient winds are loosed from their sounding prison, and repay the liberty they have received with a tune. Of an organ.

History is made up of the bad actions of extraordinary men. All the most noted destroyers and deceivers of our species, all the founders of arbitrary governments and false religions, have been extraordinary men, and nine-tenths of the calamities which have befallen the human race had no other origin than the union of high intelligence with low desires. Macaulay.

Hoc patrium est, potius consuefacere filium / Sua sponte recte facere, quam alieno metuIt is a fathers duty to accustom his son to act rightly of his own free-will rather than from fear of the consequences. Terence.

Homers Epos has not ceased to be true; yet is no longer our Epos, but shines in the distance, if clearer and clearer, yet also smaller and smaller, like a receding star. It needs a scientific telescope, it needs to be reinterpreted and artificially brought near us, before we can so much as know that twas a sun . For all things, even celestial luminaries, much more atmospheric meteors, have their rise, their culmination, their decline. Carlyle.

Homines amplius oculis quam auribus credunt: longum iter est per præcepta, breve et efficax per exemplaMen trust their eyes rather than their ears: the road by precept is long and tedious, by example short and effectual. Seneca.

Homo constat ex duabus partibus, corpore et anima, quorum una est corporea, altera ab omni materiæ concretione sejunctaMan is composed of two parts, body and soul, of which the one is corporeal, the other separated from all combination with matter. Cicero.

Homo qui erranti comiter monstrat viam, / Quasi lumen de suo lumine accendit, facit; Nihilominus ipsi luceat, cum illi accenderitHe who kindly shows the way to one who has gone astray, acts as though he had lighted anothers lamp from his own, which both gives light to the other and continues to shine for himself. Cicero.

Honestum quod vere dicimus, etiamsi a nullo laudatur, laudabile est sua naturaThat which we truly call honourable is praiseworthy in its own nature, even though it should be praised by no one. Cicero.
